General Makeup
For general makeup your aim is to create a very presentable and chic look.
First concentrate on the face. Hide those dark circles under the eyes and
other blemishes by using concealer pencil. Choose a shade close to your skin
color. Apply powder foundation or cream for more coverage.
For those beautiful eyes concentrate in shaping your brows and fill in thin
areas with soft gray or brown pencil. Apply liner in soft gray or brown to
bottom lashes. Use eyeliner for top lashes.
Apply two coats of brown or brown/black mascara. Do not use black mascara
unless you have black eye lashes.
Apply powder blush on the ball of the cheek. Neutral shades are best since
they give a softer appearance.
Line lips to define shape and apply lip color in bright tones for your color
palette.
Casual Makeup

makeup. Creating a casual look is quick and easy.
Apply a concealer that best matches your natural coloring to correct under
eye circles. Blend with a sponge.
The foundation powder should match with your skin tone. Apply it all over
your face with a large powder brush. Include your eyelids but exclude the
areas under your eyes.
